I have "No space before Rom" checked, "Use File name only" checked, with this command line on the Associated Platform's list for Sega Naomi: -run=Naomi -rom= But when i try to launch a game, it brings up the game list instead. I followed this entire thread and the video tutorial twice. At the end of my rope trying to figure it out. Any help is appreciated Change the "N" in Naomi to a lower case "n". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, that was actually a typo in the post on my part, haha. It is lowercase in the emulator. Just wondering, but I'm using this emulator with the .bat files . . . is that the problem? Should I use the mame version instead? EDIT: Here's the direct copy-paste: Sega Naomi -run=naomi -rom= True Edited December 19, 2017 by shadowblind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil9000 Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Hmm, yeah I don't have any Naomi set up at the moment, but when I did I was using the mame files and it worked just fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil9000 Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Here is how I had mine set up when I was using it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowblind Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 (edited) Yep, mine looks the exact same, down to the T I just tried a different ROM, Chaos Field, and it worked where Azumanga Bubble and Ikaruga didn't while launching from Launchbox. Both ROMS work when booted from Demul directly, however. I did this test with Chaos Field because when I tried to launch Azumanga, a list pops up in Demul with a number of games. Azumanga wasn't one of them, while Chaos Field was. I believe(?) that may have something to do with it . . . So a new question, how do I add new games to DEMUL's Naomi games list? Like, how do I add Azumanga for example, so I don't have to load it through the Decrypted button? Thanks again for the help so far, neil!

neil9000 Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Hmm, I'm not sure if ikaruga is a Naomi rom I think its atomiswave, have you checked the games you are trying to launch are actually Naomi games? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil9000 Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 My mistake, it seems they are Naomi, let me set up ikaruga in my launchbox and see what I get. Give me a couple of minutes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowblind Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 So I've figured a few more things out. Any game listed in the DEmul compatibility file runs well if it's the MAME version. Any .dat version, however, needs to be manually loaded through the "Load Decrypted" button. Now I'm hoping to find a way that we can load .dat files into Launchbox without having to go through the games menu and Load button in Demul. There are a lot of good games that have .dat versions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just bumping this up in the hopes someone can help as i'm trying to do exactly this. Is there any way to launch DEmul .dat files via the command line in Launchbox? They boot manually through DEmul by clicking the "Load Decrypted Rom" button but not in Launchbox using the command lines posted earlier in the thread. Thanks!

DaveC Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 I figured it out. The command line must be -run=naomi customrom="Rom name" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To do this you do not need a separate copy of Demul you only need the emulator on your drive one time you just need to point LB to it twice with a different name the second time I prefer Demul[Arcade] but you can name it anything you want. Here is a post from another thread that may be helpful. I had a question for you DOS76 regarding the above... I'm not using Demul for Dreamcast so that's not an issue, but is my understanding correct with the following. All systems in your images can be run with demul but if I want to run Gaelco games, it best to run another instance of Demul eg Demul and Demul [Gaelco games] Can you explain the DX11 issue a little further Using demul07_111117 Edited October 11, 2018 by InfinityFox adding more info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 not sure on that haven't messed with it in a while I believe Gaelco had issues with the dx11 new plugin but worked with the old plugin. I know some people like the old plugin better so if you find that suitable then you could just use it for all the systems. This was all before that build you are using so never really tested it out with it and it may not be an issue any longer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The command line is correct, but are you using the same demul as you use for dreamcast? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KoolyTheBear Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 @Eli631 I had the same problem, and downloading the newer version of Demul fixed it for me.
